    Harsh yes, but he's been given a decent pot, one that probably expected better, and our goals for are appalling, it became a case of if we couldn't win 1-0 or the opposition scored first, we were done - and I guess the owners having ploughed in a fair whack of money, weren't prepared to carry the risks any longer.

    I'm surprised but not surprised after a few recent results.

    Be interesting to see who you get and whether they have an immediate impact.

    Keith Millen is the interim, until we bring in a new manager. He's our head of academy coach.

    The only worrying aspect of that idea is that you think I would last 2 months. <laugh>

    Even my blagging can't stretch that long.

    Yeah I saw that with them 16th.

    Bizarre really as he had a few top ten PL finishes at one point so it's quite a fall.

    Yes mate ... but prepare your answer for why you haven't fixed the tags on here in all this time, just in case it comes up during the interview... <whistle>

    From a purely bantz point of view, just how funny would it be if Liverpool were to lose 1-0 due to dodgy VAR given pen against Union Saint-French ***s? <whistle>

    Kevin Keegan says he has a problem with female football pundits. Love Laura at golf, love Annabel at tennis but I do share Keegan’s issue at football. Most blokes I know feel the same.

    For some reason when I see this picture of Keegan all I can think of is the opening credits of The Professionals...

    In case you're wondering: Tony Woodcock, Laurie Cunningham and Kevin Keegan (1980)

    Interviewer "do you like watching terrible football?"

    brb "Well I'm a Giilingham fan so..."

    Interviewer "oh wow, our other questions were simply are you willing to work here and are you a masochist but you seem to have covered it all there so when can you start?"
